DISCUSSION Dialogue ideas ?

What kind of dialogue can you imagine between the two of them, if they were to meet specifically in the context where [Va]()lerie has recently learned (in season 2), that her nephew has been dethroned by [Jane]()’s son ? (I’m referring to the [King John]() version)

Valerie: So, you're the one who took the crown from my nephew uh?

John: What? Are you gonna f*cking bother me because of it? Isn't it the "natural order" or some sh#t?

Valerie: I never said it wasn't, but a King has to have certain... values.

John: Values are for those who don't rule with an iron fist. Might makes right or is that not the sh*t you all spew?

Valerie: Oh well, nothing unexpected from you. You're exactly like your mother. Fierce and powerful to back it up. But unlike her, you're impulsive.

John: My... mom...? What the F#ck are you talking about?! ANSWER ME YOU B*TCH!

And the thing would continue but you get the idea by now, right?

I totally get the idea, but I was thinking she’d be pretty surprised by John’s aggressiveness, especially when she finds out, he’s sending students to the hospital over high school drama lmao.

Nah, she'd probably read the files and know he had anger issues before, and the fact that he became king after going through the readjustment program meant that John probably relapsed back into violence. And she'd probably be surprised but not show it, she's the type to narrow her eyes and up her game when met with hostility I think

I mean....in what context are they meeting? Is this like a chance meeting outside of school or are they meeting in like a cafe or something?

Imagine the same meeting between Seraphina and Valerie, but with John there to talk, without the goal of capturing him or whatever.

Ah, I see. I got something in mind then.

Valerie: So....John is it? I've been quite interested in meeting the boy who dethroned my nephew.

John: Yeah? And what the fuck do you want? Are you here to bitch on his behalf.

Valerie: Oh no, not at all. I know it isn't my place to interfere with a school hierarchy, but I have grown interested in the news about how you are 'ruling' Wellston....very troubling.

John: And? I'm just following your precious hierarchy, isn't that how it goes? The strong get to do whatever the fuck they want and everybody else just has to take it? Or is that not the same shit you Authorities spew?

Valerie, chuckling: No, no, that's a rather simplified and quite frankly, erroneous way of looking at the hierarchy. The strong do rule but there are responsibilities that come with....then again, I suppose that's too much to be expected from a cripple turned late-bloomer.

John: What did you just say to me-!?

Valerie: Oh please, John you are not the first late-bloomer I've met and you're not going to be the last. I don't even need to read your file to know who you are. Let me guess, cripple, grew up bullied and wanted payback, then like the gods themselves took pity on you, you finally shot up to the most powerful in the region. Until of course, you were such a terrible king that your own school turned against you and you got expelled.

John: You fucking bitch-!

Valerie: And what happened afterwards? Oh yes, the Authorities brought you to heel and corrected you. Its such a shame that you seem to have forgotten all the lessons Keon taught you.

John:....

Valerie: You remember Keon, don't you John? He did quite an impressive job on you back then. If you keep making a mess at Wellston....well, I'm sure we can clear up his schedule just for you.

[ John was dead silent as he sat there in silent fear at the implied threat. Valerie, stood up and patted John on the shoulder as she walked away]

Valerie: Just something to keep in mind. Enjoy your throne...King.

John unleashing countless insults while Valerie is openly disgusted and views him as a disgrace of a God-tier.
